Somerville Wins Much Needed Chips in Multi-Way Pot

Nível 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The action starts with a raise to 16,000 from Dakota Britton in early position, followed by a call from Jason Somerville in late position, Christopher Lawrence on the button, and Ryan Tillmann in the big blind.

The four players saw a flop of 8♣7♠3♠ and Tillmann, Britton, and Somerville all checked to Lawrence, who bet 16,000. Tillmann folded, Britton called, and Somerville raised to 50,000, with both Britton and Lawrence deciding to come along.

The turn brought the remaining three players the Q♥ and Britton checked to Somerville, who committed around 90 percent of his remaining chip stack with a bet of 140,000.

Both Lawrence and Britton thought for a moment before releasing their hands and granting Somerville the sizeable pot.

Koper checked over to Gao on the A♦ turn. Gao continued for 39,000, but this time Koper decided to raise to 85,000. Gao called.

Slowing down on the 10♥, Koper checked to Gao who shoved all in for a massive bet nearing 200,000. This proved no problem for Koper as she picked off this bet and tabled A♣K♣ for top pair. Gao showed 8♦4♦ for a missed flush draw and was eliminated.

No Slowing Down for Somerville

Tboss

Nível 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Jason Somerville raised to 22,000 under the gun and Christopher Lawrence called next to act.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♥Q♠7♥ and Somerville continued for 25,000. Lawrence tossed in a call.

The 6♠ landed on the turn and Somerville continued with aggression, stacking up a bet of 75,000. Lawrence took a few moments and made the call.

The Q♥ river paired the board and brought in the flush but that didn't slow Somerville down as after about five seconds he announced all-in for roughly 189,000. Lawrence, who had him covered, went into the tank for about 30 seconds before letting it go.

Lemery Scoops Multi-Way Pot with Rivered Flush

Nível 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The action began with Hunter Mcclelland opening from early position to 23,000 and getting called by Michael Sabbia on the button and Dylan Lemery from the big blind.

The monotone flop of 7♦2♦8♦ saw both Lemery and Mcclelland check to Sabbia, who put in a bet of 20,000, with both players calling.

With the pot growing, the dealer flipped the Q♥ on the turn and this time Sabbia bet 80,000 after being checked to by both Lemery and Mcclelland.

Lemery called the 80,000 chip bet and Mcclelland folded, bringing us the 10♦ river.

Both Lemery and Sabbia checked and Lemery revealed K♥Q♦ for a rivered queen-high flush. Sabbia mucked face down.

Jacob Long raised to 25,000 in the cutoff before Pete Chen called on the button. Anatoly Zharnitsky shoved in the small blind for about 140,000 before Xulong Zhang instantly pushed all of his 750,000 across the line from the big blind. Both Long and Chen's cards went into the muck and both hands were tabled.

Anatoly Zharnitsky: J♦J♠
Xulong Zhang: K♣K♦

Zharnitsky woke up with pocket jacks in the small blind but ran into the monster pocket kings of Zhang and he wasn't able to catch up as the board ran out 8♠7♥4♥A♣10♠, sending him to the payout desk.

Britton and Somerville Clash in Three-Bet Pot

Nível 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Jason Somerville raised to 20,000 from early position and was three-bet by Dakota Britton on the button to 65,000. The action folded back around to Somerville who called.

The dealer peeled a flop of 2♦3♠7♠ and Somerville checked to Britton, who checked behind, with both players checking the Q♠ turn as well.

The river brought the A♦ and again Somerville checked to Britton, who this time decided to bet 75,000.

"I wish we could see who was ahead on each street," said Somerville, before making the fold.
